mithr piaarae noo(n) haal mureedhaa dhaa kehinaa Please tell the dear friend - the Lord - the plight of his disciples. Â
thudhh bin rog rajaaeeaa dhaa oudtan naag nivaasaa dhae hehinaa Without you the use of rich blankets is like a disease for us and the
comfort of the house is like living with snakes.
Â
sool suraahee kha(n)jar piaalaa bi(n)g kasaaeeaaa(n) dhaa sehinaa Our water pitchers are like stakes of torture and our cups have
edges like daggers. Your neglect is like the suffering of animals
at the hands of butchers.
yaararrae dhaa saanoo(n) saathhar cha(n)gaa bhat(h) khaerriaa
dhaa rehinaa Our Beloved Lord’s straw bed is more pleasing to us than living
in costly furnace-like mansions.
